Greetings to you from (Nigeria). We knows about your company and the merriments offers you gives people who are willing to relocate to your country already and we are happy About it. But then, we have some questions bothering our minds here, is there any full sponsorship offer in your company there whereby the applicants can benefit and then pay back to the company as they works there? People here are really willing to relocate and work there but we really have bad economy and almost everyone of them are not financially bouyant. In that case, we plead to the company to please grant us full sponsorship offer even if not for much people, you can actually test us with this and see how loyal we are.

How to work abroad

So how do you even get a job abroad? Well, you’ll want to start by finding the destinations where you can legally work abroad and then start your job search. Or, you can find a job that allows you to work abroad, and they will often sponsor your work visa.

You can also get a job overseas with no experience! In fact, teaching English abroad is the perfect job in that particular scenario. However, if teaching isn’t your true calling, you can either apply for international positions while still at home, or apply for a work visa abroad and figure things out once you arrive.

Here’s how to get a job abroad:

Choose a destination. Places like Australia, New Zealand, and Ireland grant Working Holiday Visas to citizens of certain countries and who meet an age requirement. If you want to work abroad for a year or permanently, then you’ll want to secure a job offer prior to applying for work visas abroad.
